It may be autumn already but cooking summer vegetables is still going on. Basically most of them are at their best now in September having received the warmth of the last days of August. Zucchinis are still tender and sweet. We’ve sliced some and we’ve baked them with some special Greek cheeses. A perfect early autumn dish!

On today’s new blog post we’ve got some lovely zucchini fries. Elegant but still crunchy, these zucchini fries are so delicious in their Greek flavors which are enhanced with a wonderful Greek style yoghurt dip!

There’s no doubt that our favorite summer appetizer is thinly sliced zucchinis fried in olive oil! They’re so scrumptious, so delicious that you’ll find yourself having a hard time trying to stop eating them!

They go very well with a glass of beer, some retsina wine or even better a glass of ouzo on ice!

Briámi (or briám) is a very simple summer dish made with season vegetables. It’s one of those dishes that don’t take much of our time to prepare, they don’t need any peculiar ingredients- just fresh summer vegetables and everyone in the family enjoys eating! That’s why it is a common option for the family cook, so common that it’s usually served at least once a week in summer!
